That episode will be coming out on August 12th and during that episode, I created &#8220;The Gull&#8221;.  The video was a little semi-live challenge.  You see normally I would decide the topic, pull the things I need together, write out a little script to demonstrate the technique and that would be it.  This time, I took a picture of the gull and a couple of random textures and recorded myself both teaching how to use textures and just seeing what I could come up on the fly.  This is what I ended up with and I kinda like it.  I liked it enough that I am going to start a series of animal shots and using textures to create something more painterly and artistic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can check out the video on the 12th, but I thought I would show you the three pictures I used to make the pic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"870\" src=\"https:\/\/enlighten-upmedia.com\/wlfa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/gull1-1024x870.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-648\" srcset=\"https:\/\/enlighten-upmedia.com\/wlfa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/gull1-1024x870.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/enlighten-upmedia.com\/wlfa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/gull1-300x255.jpg 300w, https:\/\/enlighten-upmedia.com\/wlfa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/gull1-768x652.jpg 768w, https:\/\/enlighten-upmedia.com\/wlfa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/gull1-1536x1305.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/enlighten-upmedia.com\/wlfa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/gull1-2048x1740.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/enlighten-upmedia.com\/wlfa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/2LO_Sweet-Musings_24-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-649\" srcset=\"https:\/\/enlighten-upmedia.com\/wlfa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/2LO_Sweet-Musings_24-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/enlighten-upmedia.com\/wlfa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/2LO_Sweet-Musings_24-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/enlighten-upmedia.com\/wlfa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/2LO_Sweet-Musings_24-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/enlighten-upmedia.com\/wlfa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/2LO_Sweet-Musings_24-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/enlighten-upmedia.com\/wlfa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/2LO_Sweet-Musings_24-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/enlighten-upmedia.com\/wlfa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/2LO_Sweet-Musings_24-2048x2048.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/enlighten-upmedia.com\/wlfa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Nepal_wall-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-650\" srcset=\"https:\/\/enlighten-upmedia.com\/wlfa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Nepal_wall-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/enlighten-upmedia.com\/wlfa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Nepal_wall-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/enlighten-upmedia.com\/wlfa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Nepal_wall-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/enlighten-upmedia.com\/wlfa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Nepal_wall-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/enlighten-upmedia.com\/wlfa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Nepal_wall-1365x2048.jpg 1365w, https:\/\/enlighten-upmedia.com\/wlfa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Nepal_wall-scaled.jpg 1707w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" \/><\/figure>\n<input class=\"fooboxshare_post_id\" type=\"hidden\" value=\"645\"\/>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;ve been spending a lot of time working on the YouTube channel, &#8220;Wil&#8217;s Digitals&#8221;, trying to come up with topics, learn how to make videos, not stumble over my words, etc. I decided to do a video about using textures.
